How long does repeater retain programming after ac power is removed?

i actually have no idea, i've never gotten it to work because it times out before it can do anything for me. They don't have a website to look it up anymore either and almost no help is available unless its from someone who's actually gotten it to work...

As far as I know...........indefinitely. I have unplugged it several times and moved it around the house to find the "sweet spot" and I have never had to re program it. I believe the ram is non-volatile memory. It retains what's in it until it is overwritten. Do yopurself a favor and set it up using the You Tube video that is available. It's much easier that teh manual.

I haven't looked at the programming directions in a while, but you should be able to. You set it to your needs. I have mine set to come on at 6PM and shut off at 11PM. It even adjusted for daylight savings.

No, but in the event of a power outage, it stores the programming for later. (No need to re-program.)

Yes, but is not something you have to get out and re-charge. I guess it does it automatically, so when your power goes out it stays programmed.

They turn off after a power loss. They do, however, remember the code they had previously.

It does NOT lose programming if all you're doing is swapping batteries. As long as you don't take two or three days to change it out, you should be ok.

Yes the repeater needs power. You can use one supply for everything if its big enough that's what I did, otherwise the repeater needs it's own power supply.

Don't know, Ended up programming mine manually. Easy once you figure it out. I have 27 local 2 meter repeaters, 20 70 cm repeaters, 3 wx channels, 14 frs,5 urs channels in mine with plenty of room for more. It is actually easier to program than my Kenwood TR 7950. I'm going to get a couple more and I will program them off my laptop.

I am no expert but replaced the old unit with a more powerful rather than dealing with repeater issues. I would certainly expect it to be easier that way.

C is needed if you want to power the device and use it as a repeater. Otherwise you'll be on battery.

It maintains the last programmed settings if the power to the unit is disconnected. So, no reprogramming is needed.

Yes, in fact thats the whole idea. The thing is that you need at least a 30% signal strength in order for the repeater to work. What the repeater does is pick up the signal and regenerates it. Good luck, hope it was useful.

Corey, I hard wired mine. I remember reading somewhere they Do Not have a memory. So it will default back to original pattern when power is lost or disconnected. I just leave mine on original setting back and forth pattern.

Depends... if you normally have to reprogram after a power outage then yes.... the controlled outlet is just like unplugging the device. BUT... some VCR's have backup battery for the settings, clock, and programming. You can answer your own question though. Unplug your VCR... Plug it back in. If it needs programmed again then it will with this power strip if plugged into the controlled outlets.

No, and this is horribly annoying. Even a brief outage resets the clocks, alarms and everything - you have to completely reprogram everything. If you have power issues at all I would advise against it.

We've had a couple power outages since installing the unit, and it retained the last state in each instance. So, no programming needed.

Yes, This unit holds it settings after a power outage so you don't have to reprogram it again and again.
